Speech recognition is mentioned many times in the manual:

Using Voice Command
With Voice Command, you can operate Pocket PC “hands free” without
tapping or pressing buttons on your Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805.
The Voice Command application has 3 components:
Global Command: the command always available
User Command: the command that users can assign freely, always
available.
Command for each application: Command available only for the
foreground windows.
Installing the Voice Command
1. Make sure your Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 is connected to your
computer and that an ActiveSync connection has been established.
2. Start the Voice Command installation by running the Setup program.
3. After the program is installed successfully, a message displays to
inform you that the application has been allocated to the program
button 5 (recording button) automatically.

the command is not recognized, a rejection tone sounds and the

User Command
You can define voice commands on Command Settings.
There are two kinds of commands:
?Commands to insert texts
?Commands to launch applications.
To use the commands to insert texts:
1. On the User Commands tab in the Voice Command Settings, define
a phrase you like to a command. For example, define

To use the commands to launch applications:
1. On the User Commands tab in the Voice Command Settings, assign
an application you like to a command. For example, assign Solitaire
to the command run program one.
2. Say "run program one." The Solitaire screen is displayed.
NOTE When you say an undefined command, nothing happens
even if the command is recognized.
Using Voice Command for Each Application
For example, you can use voice commands in the Calendar application.
1. With the Calendar open, say "Very next appointment." The listing
mode screen appears, and it starts reading out very next appointment.
You can display the screen also by saying, "Move to listing
mode." For detail of the command list, refer to the Commands tab on
the Voice Command Settings.

Everything is great, EXCEPT it presumably will only have 64 MB of RAM. I'll be looking at the JVC 331 and the Loox 610 I guess.
